ZONGS OF ZAMZARA

i gave myself away

like an exotic smorgasbord on a park bench

available for anyone

lovingly unabashed

open for love

only love

lustless

no motivation

i wasn’t even there

nobody cared

they just scarfed down my sweets

and all the spicy meats

and left me there

strewn all over

unrecognizable

unappealing

dried up

trashed
